Last year Kimi made his first appearance at the classic event with 1964 Ferrari champion John Surtees. Read all about that day here and Kimi’s F1 Racing interview. Last year’s photo album is here.

We must have made a good impression on the Iceman, mustn’t we? News that the inimitable Finn will, like Felipe Massa, be returning to the Festival of Speed for the second year in succession stirred memories of the wonderful occasion last year when he starred alongside 1964 World Champion John Surtees in an historic run up the hill in Ferrari Grand Prix cars old and new.

The 20-time Grand Prix winner and 2007 World Champion will be here on Friday only and will be accompanied by Ferrari‘s long-standing fuel supplier Shell, which will be demonstrating on its stand its pursuit of innovation. Shell Chairman Erik Bonino tells us ‘Everyone at Shell is delighted to be back at Goodwood. This event, with its rich history, is a showpiece in the international automotive calendar. It is the perfect venue for us to demonstrate our fearless pursuit of innovation and mobility, including the ground-breaking developments we are making today as a result of our Technical Partnership with Scuderia Ferrari.’

Kimi will be driving up the hill on Friday in a 2010 Ferrari F10 Grand Prix car and we cannot wait! Welcome back to Goodwood, Kimi.

Further good news is that Friday tickets are still available! Click here.
